Machine tap DIN 371C VA M6x1mm — HSS‑Co, TiCN‑coated by TECWERK

The Machine tap DIN 371C VA M6x1mm is a TiCN‑coated HSS‑Co threading tool designed to produce metric M6×1 ISO threads in blind holes and heat‑resistant stainless steels.

• TiCN‑coated HSS‑Co for extended tool life
• Spiral flute 40° right‑hand for blind holes
• ISO2 (6H) tolerance for accurate threads
• Suitable for stainless and heat‑resistant steels

Consistent, ISO‑compliant metric threads for production use

The tap conforms to DIN 371C and produces M6×1 metric ISO threads with ISO2 (6H) tolerance, which ensures consistent fit and interchangeability with standard fasteners. For production environments this reduces rework and rejects, because the defined tolerance band limits dimensional variation. The standard reference (DIN 13 Blatt 1) and the ISO tolerance designation give a verifiable basis for quality control and inspection routines, supporting a predictable assembly process.

Coating and substrate geometry that lower running costs

Built from HSS‑Co with a TiCN‑coating, the tool combines toughness and surface hardness to resist abrasion and adhesion when cutting stainless and heat‑resistant steels up to 1000 N/mm² tensile strength. The TiCN-coated surface reduces built‑up edge and improves wear resistance, extending tool life and maintaining thread quality over longer runs. The relieved flanks and optimised cutting geometry help to reduce cutting forces and heat generation, which benefits tool longevity and machine spindle loads.

Spiral geometry and shank design for reliable chip control

The right‑hand spiral 40° flutes are configured specifically for blind‑hole threading; they direct chips back into the flute for safer evacuation and reduce the risk of chip packing at the base of the hole. The tool is finished with a blue ring identification and a shank diameter of 6 mm, suitable for standard collets and holders used in automatic tapping heads and CNC machines. This combination of geometry and shank sizing supports automated production and repeatable results in both single‑pass and series manufacturing.

FAQ

What materials is this tap suitable for?
The TECWERK machine tap is designed for stainless, acid‑resistant and heat‑resistant steels with tensile strengths up to 1000 N/mm², as specified for the M6×1 variant.

Is the tap intended for blind or through holes?
This tool is configured for blind holes; the 40° spiral geometry promotes chip evacuation away from the thread root.

What tolerance and standard does the tap meet?
The tap produces threads to ISO2 (6H) tolerance and complies with DIN 371C and DIN 13 Blatt 1 standards for metric threads.

How does the TiCN coating benefit production?
The TiCN coating increases surface hardness and reduces adhesion, lowering wear and helping maintain thread quality over extended production runs.

What holder size is required for this tap?
The tap has a shank diameter of 6 mm and is compatible with standard collet systems and tapping holders that accept that shank size.
